Chapter 19 Seizure of Power and Counterattack

After Yun Fenghuang left, Gu Zhen was a little worried: "If this palace does this, will the concubine hold a grudge against this palace and then retaliate?" ”

"No matter how favored the concubine is, she is only a concubine, and Your Majesty is not such a foolish person. Otherwise, how could the ambition of the concubine not covet the posterior? The henchman comforted, "And what a big deal it is, even if it is Your Majesty, it is impossible to make a decision." ”

Instead of breathing a sigh of relief, Gu Zhen stared at his henchmen and said slowly: "Why do you think that if this palace offends the concubine, you have to worry about the instability of the posterior?" ”

The revenge she said was just that she was afraid that the concubine would play tricks in private, especially against the three princes and the five princes.

As a result, this close attendant opened his mouth and asked her not to worry about the phoenix position, which ......

The henchman hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The servant is confused, the servant has no such meaning!" The maid is stupid and said the wrong thing, please punish the mother! ”

"It seems that Bengong is so easy to talk that the people around him subconsciously think that Bengong's position is unstable." Gu Zhen squinted, and after a while, he said quietly, "What about other people?" ”

"Mother's anger." Seeing this, some other people came up to persuade them, and made a gesture to let people drag the henchman who said the wrong thing to be punished, "Niangniang's generosity is the blessing of the six palaces." ”

"At this time, you still say such things to fool the palace?" Gu Zhen said coldly, "This palace is generous and generous, although it is the blessing of the six palaces, but it is not the blessing of this palace, and it is not the blessing of the heirs of this palace!" ”

She exhaled slowly, as if talking to herself, "Actually, what is there to worry about in this palace?" The former queen just thinks very clearly: like the main palace, the back position comes from the family, but as long as the father and brother are there, the status will definitely stand; If the father and brother are not good, no matter how virtuous and virtuous they are, what is the use of generosity and love? ”

The next day, Woxialou announced the news of the queen's recovery.

Hearing the news, of course, the Sixth Palace had to go to Daohe to ask for peace, and then in front of many concubines, Gu Zhen said bluntly that during his previous illness, the palace affairs were entrusted to the noble concubine Shufei Defei, and now that he is well, he can't continue to work hard for these three concubines.

Such a straightforward collection of power made the concubines in the room hold their breath and stare at them without making a sound, and they all quietly glanced at Yun Fenghuan out of the corner of their eyes, and prepared to tear the concubine queen apart in public.

In fact, Yun Fenghuan was also very surprised, she failed to incite the queen yesterday, and after returning to the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion, she didn't think about teaching the queen a lesson next, so that she knew who was the one who had the final say in this palace.

But after all, the top priority is to prevent the marriage between the county lord of Kunze and the Yuan family.

As for Gu Zhen, in Yun Fenghuang's opinion, this queen is very easy to deal with, but there is no need to be in a hurry, so he did not immediately start arranging revenge against Woxia Tower.

As a result, she hasn't made a move yet, but the queen turned her face first?

With his mind racing, Yun Fenghuang smiled and agreed to the queen's resumption.

Anyway, she promised to let the queen decide whatever happened next, but whether the queen can make the many people below obey and take care of the palace has nothing to do with her.

After everyone dispersed on this day, Concubine Shu and Concubine De followed Yunfeng to the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion, and Yi Xingen Qu Hongzhen also came to listen to the teachings under the guise of asking for peace.

"Sister, what do you mean by this?" After all, Concubine De and Yun Fenghuan have a longer and closer relationship, and after entering the door, when she saw the idler being sent away, she immediately said, "Didn't you just slow down a little, and you just wanted to unload the mill and kill the donkey?" ”

Concubine Shu slowly put forward a guess: "I heard that the queen mother has been tossing and turning for the affairs of King Chu for the past two days, and she is very distressed. It is said that even if the phoenix body recovers, it should continue to worry about His Royal Highness the King of Chu, so as not to worry about palace affairs so soon...... Could it be that the queen mother suspects that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is infected and related to the people in the palace, and wants to take back the palace power so that it can be thoroughly investigated? ”

"With the queen's little ability, what can she find out?" Concubine De pouted and said, "I'm afraid I just want to shake my majesty?" Don't make a mess of it then, we have to clean up the aftermath in the end! ”

She is the shortest of the concubines in the six palaces, but there is such a thing as power, even those who have never tasted its sweetness, and many of them are also full of yearning.

After tasting it, you can still put it down as if nothing happened, it is really rare.

Concubine De is definitely not among them.

Of course, the concubine and the concubine are too, at this time, the concubine pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "This palace is also a little unsure of what the queen's move means, but it doesn't matter, we have taken care of the sixth palace for so long, and it is not something that she can erase with a word." She is willing to take over the matter of Chen Sesame and Rotten Grain, so let her take over. I think that at the beginning, a few of us divided labor, and there were various examples of the former queen for reference, and how many days were still in a hurry. The queen is only alone, how can it go smoothly when she worries about this up and down? When the queen understands, she still has to rely on us. ”

In other words, he hurriedly arranged for his subordinates to stuff a bunch of old sesame seeds and rotten grain for the queen, which made the queen busy and unable to go smoothly.

So I have to rely on them.

Concubine Shu Defei saw that her attitude obviously did not want to let go of power, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, it was natural that the palace power should be in the hands of the queen, although Gu Zhen was not a particularly shrewd and capable person, but he had a family to rely on and a righteous name.

If there were no people like Guifei in front of them, and let them charge into battle to fight for power with Gu Zhen on their own, they really didn't have the confidence and courage.

In this way, the three concubines discussed how to make the queen realize that without the assistance of the third concubine, she would not be able to govern the six palaces at all, and Concubine Shu and Concubine De also retired and left together with the Yi Qu clan, who was not qualified to interject.

After they left, Yun Fenghuang pinched the corner of his forehead and pondered for a moment, and was told that Xingxintang had sent an attendant to ask about Woxialou today.

"I think it's a good thing that the queen is very good, so I plan to take care of the palace affairs myself, which is also a good thing, after all, some time ago, for His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the queen mother was very haggard, and it really hurts to look at it." Yun Fenghuang lightly told the visitor, "Now that I have the heart to pay attention to the Sixth Palace, it can be seen that I have come out, which is really gratifying." ”

These words were reported to Chunjia, and Chunjia said: "It seems that this matter was not instructed by the concubine...... Is it the queen's own intention? ”

Yesterday, Yun Fenghuang only went to Woxia Tower, and now the queen is uncharacteristically going to take power, compared with their performance since entering the palace, anyone must suspect that the queen has been fooled again, and it is the concubine who really gives advice.

It's the concubine who wants to do something again......

But listening to the meaning of Yun Fenghuan's words, this matter was done by Gu Zhen herself, and it had nothing to do with her.

Chunjia thought about the queen's thoughts, and ordered that after dealing with government affairs today, he would not go to the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion first, and go to the Woxia Tower to visit the King of Chu first.

Gu Zhen greeted him respectfully and politely as usual, at this time the King of Chu happened to be awake, he was pink-white and cute at this age, but his eyes were ignorant, not as smart as before the infection, which made people look worried.

Not only Gu Zhen has been sad once so far, but Chunjia is also a little embarrassed, and personally leaned over to pick up the king of Chu and teased him for a while, seeing that the child was a little impatient, he handed it over to the nurse and returned to the main room with the queen to talk.

"I see that the King of Chu's body and bones are much stronger than before, and the queen has worked hard these days." After sitting down, Gu Zhen didn't say a word, Chunjia thought about it, and took the initiative to speak, "I heard that the queen is doing well today?" ”

Gu Zhen responded lightly with a "yes" and said, "Although the King of Chu's body and bones are much better, it is unknown what will happen in the future. The concubine thought that this was all because the concubine herself did not take good care of him. And now the concubines and concubines of the Sixth Palace, either have young heirs to take care of, or they are pregnant, and they are not able to work without worries. If it is because they are asked to help the concubines work, causing their pregnancy or the imperial heir under their knees to have a mistake, how can the concubines bear it? Therefore, let them hand over power for the time being, and intend to choose another high position that is not much of a drag. But I don't know what Your Majesty thinks? ”

There is nothing wrong with this high-sounding statement, to be honest, if it weren't for Yun Fenghuang, Chunjia would not object.

The problem is that Yun Fenghuang has been in charge of the sixth palace since the former queen Ji Lingzi lost power, and she will watch the queen find an excuse to take away her power?

Impossible.

She's going to make trouble.

Chun Jia pondered for a while, and said: "The high-ranking people in the palace who have no heirs and no pregnancy are none other than Concubine Wan, Mrs. Roukun, Xuan Zhaoyi, Ping's, Yi's, and Qu's. Among them, the Ping family and below are all palace concubines who have just been promoted, but they are afraid that they will not be caught. Concubine Wan, Lady Roukun and Xuan Zhaoyi, but they are too young. ”

Gu Zhen said that it didn't matter, just teach it slowly, because: "It hasn't been long since the concubine, the concubine and the concubine have entered the palace, and they have always taken care of the palace very properly, which shows that the ambition is not old." In contrast, such a concubine is as dull as her, and she can still be entrusted by His Majesty to the Six Palaces, not to mention that the concubines are all rich and intelligent? ”

She is determined to get rid of Concubine Shufei and Concubine De.

This approach is also understandable from the position of a queen, after all, the concubine is deeply favored by the emperor and is still strong, and the queen does not want to be set aside, so it is very reasonable to suppress the faction headed by the concubine and promote the concubine as a confidant.

The problem is that after Yun Fenghuang recommended Gu Zhen as the first person, Chun Jia also agreed to this matter, because Gu Zhen was not very foolish when he came to the city government, and secondly, Gu Zhen was not so aggressive.

From the time she was canonized to the present, she has indeed not had a particularly fierce conflict with Yun Fenghuang.

For this situation, Chunjia is relatively satisfied.

Now that he had suddenly done so, the emperor couldn't help but think, "But who said anything to the queen?" ”

"What?" Gu Zhen frowned and looked at him, "Does Your Majesty think this is inappropriate?" ”

Chunjia didn't answer this, but asked if someone said something that shouldn't be said in front of the queen? For example, the illness of the king of Chu is related to the noble concubine.

In his opinion, the queen has always been sensible and will not rashly set off such disputes in the harem.

The reason why he did this must have been stimulated.

So judging from the recent events, the most likely thing is to treat the concubine as a murderer, so she turned her face.

Or, is this what Gu means, wanting to test his attitude?

Thinking of some recent consultations in the temple, especially some discussions about meddling in Wei Su, Chun Jia was suspicious, but he didn't show it on his face, and he still limited the problem to the harem.

After all, Gu Zhen is not sharp enough, and the Gu family behind her said that there is no successor, but the elders are not without understanding.

Chunjia is not good at having trouble with the Gu family now, so no matter whether this matter has the Gu family's involvement or not, he will characterize it as a fight between the concubines.

Gu Zhen didn't expect the emperor to think of the previous dynasty at all, she hesitated, not knowing whether to sell Yun Fenghuan?

Although this move will definitely bring a lot of trouble to the concubine, with the concubine's means and the degree of the emperor's favor, it should not be knocked into the dust all at once. In that case, he will become a mortal enemy with the concubine.

The point is that she doesn't seem to have any particular benefit to herself......

“…… His Majesty made it very clear to the concubine that day, how could the concubine suspect the concubine? Gu Zhen thought for a while and said, "It's just that I think it's not like to bother the concubines these days." ”

She insisted that it was for the good of the three concubines to take back the power of the six palaces of the three concubines, not for any other reason.

Chunjia was sure that this was what the Gu family meant, and did not force her to treat the concubine specially, and quietly diverted the topic, which was regarded as acquiescing in her approach.

And when Gu Zhen saw this, he didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or feel lost?

When she decided to openly withdraw the power of the third concubine, she knew that Chunjia Bacheng would come to her.

She was actually mentally prepared to be rejected by Chunjia, but the emperor didn't do it at all...... Of course, Gu Zhen understood that this must be because of the Gu family.

It can't be that Chunjia respects her as a queen.

But Chunjia's move obviously has no intention of making the platform public for Yunfenghuang.

Although he knew that even if Yun Fenglian didn't go out in person without Chunjia personally pulling the sidelines, it would not be difficult to take away some of the power from her, but Gu Zhen still wanted to know what Yun Fenghuan's mood would be after knowing about it?

…… Yun Feng Huang indicates that the mood is calm.

Because it was something she expected.

If Chunjia is the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation for personal reasons, it won't be her turn to enter the palace to win favor, and she turned her face with the Ji family for the Empress Dowager Yuan Yuan in the morning, and then was cooked by the Ji family.

He couldn't get to where he is now.

Therefore, this morning, after listening to Chunjia's euphemistic message, "I can't help you with this, you can do it yourself, but don't make me too embarrassed", she calmly agreed, and she would not cause too much trouble to the emperor.

What she promised would not add too much trouble meant that in the afternoon of the same day, a palace man who mixed saffron into Ouyang Fu's fetal pills was arrested, claiming to be instructed by the palace maid of Woxialou.

Gu Zhen: "..................!!! ”

This is not over, Gu Zhen was still interrogating the ins and outs of this matter, and when he tried to find out the flaws, another palace person came to tell him, saying that His Royal Highness King Qin was uncomfortable, and the concubine as an adoptive mother needed to be taken care of by herself, and she had no time to take care of the concubine. Please ask the queen to help investigate thoroughly and give King Qin justice!

Gu Zhen: "????!!!!!!!!!! ”

It's just a stick of incense, and Concubine De also came to move: Concubine De's wedding jewelry was inexplicably lost several pieces, and the entire Dan Ruoting was searched all over and there was no clue, so I implore the queen to be aware of everything, don't let her lose the things left by her deceased mother!

Gu Zhen...... Gu Zhen...... Gu Zhen took a deep breath: "...... Anything else? If you have, report it all together! ”
